This application claims priority to Chinese Application Patent Serial No. 201810277815.2, filed on Mar. 30, 2018, the entire disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference.

TECHNICAL FIELD

This disclosure relates to the technical field of communications, and more particularly to a method for processing signals, a terminal device, and a non-transitory readable storage medium.

BACKGROUND

With the development of intellectualization of communication devices, people use smart terminals increasingly frequently in daily lives. Through a smart terminal, a user can conduct a variety of activities such as video communication, calling, voice communication, music listening, and video playing. At the same time, as a tool to transmit sound, headphones give people a different sense of hearing. The headphones are widely used in people's daily lives. The user can conduct a variety of activities such as music listening, calling, voice communication, video communication, and video playing through the headphones. In more and more occasions, people like to wear the headphones, and the sound insulation and noise reduction effect of the headphones are getting better.

When the user wears the headphone to listen to music or to call, a sound signal of external environment is isolated, this makes it hard for the user to hear reminding sound or a shout, such as horn of an automobile and a shout of an acquaintance. Even if the user hears the reminding sound, it is hard to judge where the reminding sound is made. Therefore, when the user wears the headphone, he or she needs to be distracted by surrounding environment, which may cause inconvenience to the user.

FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating an application scenario of a method for processing signals according to an implementation of the present disclosure. As illustrated in FIG. 1, the application scenario relates to a terminal device 110 and a headphone 120 in communication with the terminal device 110.

The terminal device 110 is in communication with the headphone 120. The headphone 120 includes, but is not limited to, an in-ear headphone and an earplug-type headphone. The terminal device 110 can communicate with the headphone 120 in a wired or wireless manner to transmit data.

The terminal device 110 plays an audio signal. The audio signal includes music, video sound, talking voices, and the like. The audio signal played by the terminal device 110 is transmitted to a user's ear through the headphone 120 to make the user hear the audio signal.

Any of the first speaker and the second speaker is configured to play an audio signal transmitted by the terminal device 110. The second microphone is configured to collect a voice signal from the user. As one implementation, the electroacoustic transducer further includes a first microphone.

FIG. 3A is a schematic flow chart illustrating a method for processing signals according to an implementation of the present disclosure. The method for processing signals in the implementation is running on the terminal device or the headphone in FIG. 1 as an example. The method is applicable to the headphone in communication with a terminal device. The headphone includes an electroacoustic transducer. The electroacoustic transducer is configured to play and collect an audio signal. The method includes the following operations at blocks 302 to 306.

At block 302, a sound signal of external environment is collected via the electroacoustic transducer of the headphone when a user talks through the headphone.

As an implementation, the electroacoustic transducer includes a second microphone and at least one speaker. The headphone can communicate with the terminal device in a wired or wireless manner. When the user talks through the headphone, the terminal device transmits an audio signal of a calling party to the user's ear through the headphone, and collects a voice signal of the user by the second microphone of the headphone. When the user talks through the headphone, the terminal device collects the sound signal of the external environment by the at least one speaker configured to play an audio signal of the headphone. As an implementation, the electroacoustic transducer includes a second microphone, a first microphone, and at least one speaker. When the user talks through the headphone, the terminal device collects the sound signal of the external environment by the first microphone.

As an implementation, the second microphone of the headphone is usually disposed close to the user's lips, so that it is easy to collect the voice signal of the user when the user is speaking. When the user is not speaking through the headphone, the second microphone of the headphone is in an idle state, so that the sound signal of the external environment can be acquired via the second microphone. When the user is speaking through the headphone, the second microphone of the headphone is occupied, so that the sound signal of the external environment cannot be acquired via the second microphone. In this case, the sound signal of the external environment is collected via the at least one speaker of the headphone.

The at least one speaker of the headphone includes a first speaker and a second speaker. The first speaker and the second speaker can be configured as the left speaker and the right speaker of the headphone respectively and are configured to convert electrical signals corresponding to the audio signal into acoustic wave signals that the user can hear. In addition, the at least one speaker is very sensitive to acoustic waves. The acoustic waves can cause vibration of a speaker cone and drive a coil coupled with the speaker cone to cut magnetic field lines in a magnetic field of a permanent magnet, thus generate a current that varies with the acoustic waves (a phenomenon of generating the current is called an electromagnetic induction phenomenon in physics). In addition, electromotive forces of the audio signal will be output at two ends of the coil, therefore, the at least one speaker can also collect and record the sound signal of the external environment. That is, the first speaker (left speaker) and the second speaker (right speaker) can also be used as a microphone.

Although different in types, functions, and operation states, electroacoustic transducers all include two basic components, that is, an electrical system and a mechanical vibration system. Inside the electroacoustic transducer, the electrical system and the mechanical vibration system are interconnected by some physical effect to complete energy conversion.

The sound signal of the external environment is collected via the electroacoustic transducer of the headphone. When the user is speaking through the headphone, the sound signal of the external environment is collected by at least one speaker configured to play an audio signal of the headphone. That is, at least one of the first speaker (left speaker) and the second speaker (right speaker) of the headphone periodically collect the sound signal of the external environment. As an implementation, the sound signal may be generated by a speaker, audio equipment, or a generator, or may be talking voices of a person. The sound signal is not limited in the present disclosure.

At block 304, feature audio of the sound signal is identified and whether the feature audio matches a preset sound model is determined.

The feature audio includes, but is not limited to, noise waves, voiceprint information, sensitive information, and the like. Valid information of the sound signal of the external environment is acquired by identifying the feature audio of the sound signal. The preset sound model refers to an audio signal with a specific frequency. The preset sound model includes, but is not limited to, a noise-feature model, a character-feature model, a time-feature model, a location-feature model, and an event-feature model. The present sound model is stored in a database to be invoked and matched when needed. As an implementation, the preset sound model can be added, deleted, modified, and so on according to user habits to adapt to needs of different users.

As an implementation, the noise-feature model includes a sound that needs to be noticed by the user, such as a horn, an alarm, a tapping sound, a cry for help, and the like. The character-feature model includes an audio signal including a name or a nick name of a group of people, a company that the user pays attention to, and the like. The time-feature mode includes an audio signal including numbers and dates. The location-feature model includes an audio signal including the user's country, city, company, home address, or the like.

When the feature audio matches the preset sound model, proceed to block 306.

At block 306, remind the user in a preset reminding manner corresponding to the feature audio.

Remind the user in the preset reminding manner corresponding to the feature audio based on a determination that the feature audio matches the preset sound model.

As an implementation, the preset reminding manner corresponding to the feature audio is determined by invoking a correspondence between feature audio and preset reminding manners. Remind the user in the preset reminding manner determined. The preset reminding manner includes, but is not limited to, preset reminder content display-remind, vibration-remind, display-remind, and simulation-remind.

According to the method for processing signals mentioned above, the sound signal of the external environment is collected via the electroacoustic transducer of the headphone when the user talks through the headphone. The feature audio of the sound signal is identified and whether the feature audio matches the preset sound model is determined. Remind the user in the preset reminding manner corresponding to the feature audio based on the determination that the feature audio matches the preset sound model. By means of the method, the sound signal of the external environment can be collected and identified by using inherent components of the headphone, such that the user can be aware of surrounding events when talking through the headphone. The security and convenience in the process of using the headphone can be improved and a better user experience can be provided.

As an implementation, as illustrated in FIG. 3B, after the sound signal of the external environment is collected via the at least one speaker of the headphone, the method further includes the following.

At block 3021, whether a valid sound signal is included in the sound signal is detected.

Existence of environmental noise leads to noise in the sound signal collected. It is necessary to distinguish the valid sound signal from the sound signal to avoid an influence of noise on an estimation of time delay. The valid sound signal can refer to feature audio of the sound signal.

A short-time zero-crossing rate refers to the number of times a waveform acquisition value is abnormal in a certain frame of the sound signal. In a valid sound signal segment, the short-time zero-crossing rate is low, and in a noise segment or a silence segment, the short-time zero-crossing rate is relatively high. Whether the sound signal contains the valid sound signal can be determined by detection of the short-time zero-crossing rate.

As an implementation, whether the sound signal includes the valid sound signal can also be determined by detection of short-time energy.

At block 3022, the sound signal is smoothed and filtered when the sound signal includes the valid sound signal.

When there is the valid sound signal in the sound signal, the sound signal may be smoothed by windowing and framing. “Framing” is configured to divide the sound signal into multiple frames of the sound signal according to a same time period, so that each frame becomes more stable. The windowing and framing is configured to weight each frame of the sound signal by a window function. As an implementation, a Hamming window function which has lower sidelobe may be adopted.

Frequencies of a noise signal may be distributed throughout a frequency space. Filtering refers to a process of filtering signals at a specific frequency band in the sound signal, so as to preserve signals at the specific frequency band and to attenuate signals at other frequency bands. The smoothed sound signal can be clearer after filtering.

As an implementation, the headphone further includes a first microphone close to the at least one speaker of the headphone. As illustrated in FIG. 4, the method further includes the following operations at blocks 402 to 404.

At block 402, a sound signal of the external environment is collected by the first microphone.

The second microphone of the headphone is usually disposed close to the user's lips, so that it is easy to collect a voice signal of the user when the user is speaking via the second microphone. When the user talks through the headphone, the second microphone of the headphone is occupied, so that the sound signal of the external environment cannot be acquired. In this case, the sound signal of the external environment can be collected by the first microphone of the headphone. At least one of the terminal device and headphone remind the user according to the sound signal collected by the first microphone.

At block 404, the voice signal from the user collected by the second microphone is denoised according to the sound signal of the external environment.

As an implementation, an audio signal collected by the second microphone of the headphone is denoised according to the sound signal of the external environment collected by the first microphone or at least one speaker, so as to eliminate an environmental noise collected by the second microphone of the headphone. In this way, when collecting a voice signal of the user, the second microphone of the headphone can transmit the voice signal to the calling party more clearly, thereby improving the voice quality during a call.

As an implementation, an audio signal played by the at least one speaker of the headphone is denoised according to the sound signal of the external environment collected by the first microphone. The first microphone collects the sound signal of the external environment, and generates an anti-noise waveform according to the sound signal. The anti-noise waveform is played by the at least one speaker of the headphone, thereby achieving an effect of canceling an environmental noise.

As an implementation, the feature audio of the sound signal is identified and whether the feature audio matches a preset sound model is determined is achieved as at least one of the following. Noise information in the sound signal is extracted and whether the noise information matches a preset noise model is determined. Voiceprint information in the sound signal is extracted and whether the voiceprint information matches a sample voiceprint information is determined. Sensitive information in the sound signal is extracted and whether the sensitive information matches a preset keyword is determined.

As an implementation, when it is identified that the sound signal includes a horn, the feature audio of the sound signal is determined to match the preset sound model. As an implementation, if user A stores an audio of a user's name “A” and an audio of a user's name “B” as feature audio, when a person calls out “A” or “B” and a similarity between the feature audio stored and what the person calls reaches a preset level, it can be determined that the sound signal of the external environment includes the feature audio. When the sound signal of the external environment includes the feature audio, the feature audio of the sound signal is determined to match the preset sound model.

As an implementation, as illustrated in FIG. 5, the operation of reminding the user in the preset reminding manner corresponding to the feature audio includes the following operations at blocks 502 to 504.

At block 502, the preset reminding manner corresponding to the feature audio is determined by invoking a correspondence between feature audio and preset reminding manners.

The feature audio includes, but is not limited to, a character-feature audio, a time-feature audio, a location-feature audio, and an event-feature audio. The preset reminding manners can be determined according to preset priorities of the feature audio. The priorities in a descending order may be: the event-feature audio, a name or a nickname of the user in the character-feature audio, a name or a nickname of a person or a company that the user pays attention to in the character-feature audio, the time-feature audio, the location-feature audio. The preset reminding manner corresponding to the feature audio is determined according to the correspondence between feature audio and preset reminding manners.

At block 504, remind the user in the preset reminding manner determined.

As an implementation, the preset reminding manner includes a first reminding manner and a second reminding manner. The first reminding manner is headphone-remind, that is, the user is reminded by playing certain specific recordings through the headphone and transmitting the certain specific recordings to the user's ear. The second reminding manner is terminal-remind, and the terminal device is in communication with the headphone. As an implementation, the terminal-remind includes interface display-remind, a combination of interface display-remind and ring-remind, a combination of interface display-remind and vibration-remind, or the like. Various reminding manners that can be conceived by those skilled in the art should be included in the implementations of the present disclosure.

As an implementation, as illustrated in FIG. 6, the electroacoustic transducer includes a first speaker and a second speaker, and the method includes the following operations at blocks 602 to 606.

At block 602, a sound signal collected by the second microphone, the first speaker, and the second speaker of the headphone are acquired.

As an implementation, when the second microphone of the headphone is not collecting a voice signal of the user, the sound signal of the external environment can be collected by the second microphone, the first speaker, and the second speaker of the headphone. As an implementation, when the headphone are provided with a first microphone, the sound signal of the external environment can be collected by the first microphone, the first speaker, and the second speaker of the headphone.

At block 604, location information of the sound signal relative to the headphone is acquired, according to time delays of receiving the sound signal by the second microphone, the first speaker, and the second speaker.

As an implementation, the sound signal is received by the second microphone, the first speaker, and the second speaker. Time delays of receiving the sound signal are acquired by using the second microphone, the first speaker, and the second speaker respectively as a reference microphone. The location information of the sound signal is estimated according to time delay estimation techniques based on arrival time delay difference to acquire the location information of the sound signal relative to the headphone. The location information can be understood as distance information of the sound signal relative to the headphone and orientation information relative to the headphone.

As an implementation, when the headphone are provided with a first microphone, the sound signal of the external environment can be collected by the first microphone, the first speaker, and the second speaker of the headphone. The sound signal is received by the first microphone, the first speaker, and the second speaker. Time delays of receiving the sound signal are acquired by using the first microphone, the first speaker, and the second speaker respectively as a reference microphone. The location information of the sound signal is estimated according to time delay estimation techniques based on arrival time delay difference to acquire the location information of the sound signal relative to the headphone. The location information can be understood as distance information of the sound signal relative to the headphone and orientation information relative to the headphone.

As an implementation, the location information of the sound signal relative to the headphone can be understood as location information of the sound signal relative to a center position of the headphone (the center position of the headphone may refer to a center position of the second microphone, the first speaker, and the second speaker; or the center position of the headphone may refer to a center position of the first microphone, the first speaker, and the second speaker). As an implementation, the location information of the sound signal relative to the headphone can be understood as location information of the sound signal relative to the second microphone (or the first microphone), the first speaker, or the second speaker. As an implementation, the location information of the sound signal relative to the headphone can also be understood as location information of the sound signal relative to any reference point on the headphone.

As an implementation, according to the sound signal received by the second microphone (or the first microphone), the first speaker, and the second speaker, the sound signal is located by directional technologies based on high-resolution spectral estimation. As an implementation, the sound signal is located by controllable beam forming technologies. As an implementation, the sound signal is located by adopting location technologies based on amplitude ratio of sound pressure.

At block 606, remind the user according to the location information.

When the sound signal meets a preset reminding condition, the user can be reminded according to preset reminding content corresponding to the location information. The preset reminding condition includes at least one of decibel values of the sound signal being greater than a preset value, the sound signal including some preset feature audio such as a horn, an alarm, a cry, a specific person name, place name, time, and the like. According to the location information of the sound signal relative to the headphone acquired, a distance signal and an orientation signal of the sound signal relative to the headphone can be acquired. Different reminding manners can be set according to the location information. When the sound signal meets the preset reminding condition, the user is reminded in a reminding manner corresponding to the location information.

As an implementation, the preset reminding manner corresponding to a current level is determined according to priorities of the feature audio. For instance, feature audio with a high priority corresponds to a first reminding manner, and feature audio with a low priority corresponds to a second reminding manner. For example, when someone calls out the user's name A” or the user's name “B”, the user can be reminded by the headphone according to the feature audio and the location information with a reminding content of “someone is calling out at one meter on the left rear”, so that the user can be reminded in time to turn around and talk with the person. When there is a horn, the user can be reminded through the headphone according to the feature audio and the location information with a reminding content of “there is a car three meters on the right rear”, so that the user can be reminded in time to be aware of safety in blind area, and heighten his or her vigilance. When someone is talking about “OPPO® phone”, the user can be reminded by displaying via an interface of a terminal device according to the feature audio and the location information with reminding content of “one meter ahead, OPPO®, OPPO®, OPPO®”, so that the user can be reminded that someone is talking about “OPPO®” one meter ahead. If the user is interested in OPPO®, he or she can stay for a while to get relevant information, and so on.

According to the method for processing signals according to the implementations, when the sound signal meets the preset reminding condition, the user can be reminded through the headphone in a preset reminding manner according to the feature audio and the location information of the sound signal. The users can deal with the sound signal accurately and immediately to avoid missing important or urgent things.

As an implementation, as illustrated in FIG. 7, the operation that the location information of the sound signal relative to the headphone is acquired according to the time delays of receiving the sound signal by the second microphone, the first speaker, and the second speaker includes the following operations at block 702 to 704.

At block 702, three time delays are acquired by using the second microphone, the first speaker, and the second speaker respectively as a reference microphone.

The sound signal can also be called an acoustic wave signal or acoustic signal. During acoustic wave propagation, since distance from sound source to the second microphone, the first speaker, and the second speaker is different, so time when the acoustic signal reaches the second microphone, the first speaker, and the second speaker is different. A time interval at which the sound signal reaches any two of the second microphone, the first speaker, and the second speaker is called a time delay.

The second microphone, the first speaker (left speaker), and the second speaker (right speaker) are fixed on the headphone, so that a coordinate system based on the headphone can be established. Positions of the second microphone, the first speaker, and the second speaker in the coordinate system are known. In addition, distances between any two of the second microphone, the first speaker (left speaker), and the second speaker (right speaker) are also known. According to the propagation speed of sound waves in the air, the time interval at which the sound signal reaches any two of the second microphone, the first speaker, and the second speaker can be calculated.

As an implementation, for the convenience of description, the second microphone, the first speaker, and the second speaker are referred to as microphones, and are respectively represented by M1, M2, and M3. The time delay (time interval) at which the sound signal reaches any two microphones (a pair of microphones) is acquired by using the microphone M1, microphone M2, and microphone M3 respectively as a reference microphone. In this way, three different time delays are acquired. Peak offsets of cross-correlation functions of amplitudes of the acoustic signal received by the microphones M1, M2, and M3 can be acquired. The three time delays are then estimated according to a sampling frequency of the acoustic signal.

At block 704, an average time delay is acquired according to the three time delays.

A weighted average value is acquired according to the three time delays. The weighted average value is determined as the average time delay.

At block 706, the location information of the sound signal is estimated according to the average time delay and the location information of the sound signal relative to the headphone is acquired.

The location information of the sound signal can be estimated according to the average time delay and known positions of the microphones M1, M2, and M3. The location information of the sound signal relative to the headphone, that is, distance information and orientation information from sound resource of the sound signal to the headphone, is acquired.

According to the method in the implementations of the present disclosure, by using the microphones M1, M2, and M3 respectively as the reference microphone, the three time delays between the reference microphone and another microphone are acquired. A weighted average value is acquired according to the three time delays. The sound signal is located according to the weighted average value, which can improve a locating accuracy.
